Exploring the world of condensed matter theory with Ali Ghorashi ’15
Power up your stereo receiver, game system, or desktop computer. Wait a few minutes, then place your hand on the top panel. 感受温暖? That’s waste heat, the result of the inefficient conduction of electricity. 将这种影响乘以数十亿的居民, 商业, and industrial devices and machines in use around the world and you’ll start to get a sense of how much generated power is lost as heat—and the resulting effect of that waste heat on global warming.
但别担心. Change is coming, and Ali Ghorashi ’15 is part of the team that’s on the case.

John Wordock, 87年
John Wordock ’87 already had a half-decade of journalism experience under his belt when he entered Waynflete’s 上学校 as a freshman in 1984. 年轻时就有自知之明, he knew what he wanted to do (be a radio reporter) and where he wanted to do it (New York City or Washington, DC). 作为一个五年级的学生, I would get out my index cards and write down ball scores, 头条新闻, 还有天气预报,他回忆道。. “I’d read off the news pieces, play records in between, and record the whole thing on cassette tapes.”
Making the Leap to Better 健康care Outcomes with Leah Binder ’80

Unsafe hospitals bill employers and government for fixing the consequences of errors, 很少或没有经济损失.”
这是卡罗尔·莱维特·亚当斯,47岁
Carol Leavitt graduated from Waynflete in 1947 and went on to a glamorous career on three continents. She is a woman of strong character with a delicious sense of humor and, above all, determination.

这是97年的马修·佩奇
By the midpoint of his 上学校 experience, Matt Page ’97 had developed two passions. The first was for England—the result of a yearlong experience in Plymouth, UK, 作为他父亲从鲍登休假的一部分. The second: an affinity for the humanities, an interest nurtured by teachers like Debba Curtis.
Matt’s two passions converged when he began undergraduate studies in politics, 哲学, 牛津大学经济学教授. 他发现自己准备得很充分. “Waynflete taught us that with strong writing, you have a survival skill,” Matt says. “在我的工作中,写得好是一种期望. But if you write exceptionally well and pair it with an ability to think critically, 你可以让你的想法更加强大和引人注目.”
这是10岁的茱莉亚·梅里亚姆
“Everything changed for me when I started at Waynflete,” says Julie Merriam ’10.

I doubt that I would have had that confidence without the Waynflete experience.”
